FOE DEVELOPING CGREECT H025i IDEALS CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION The Family Its Relation To The Problem Of This The­ sis.-T he apparent disintegration, of the twentieth century family is causing sociologists and educators much concern# It is possible that the family is not disintegrating but merely exhibiting the disorder and weak organisation,that characterise any, social institution on the eve of change and reorganisation. If the family la facing reorganisation, which of the two social institutions most directly responsi* ble for it-the home and the school- is to take the.lead in directing this reorganization? Reorganization of the family must be based upon correct home ideals, and responsibility for their development must be placed. The problem of this thesis is to determine specifically the amount of responsibility the home and the school each.should have in developing correct home ideals, and its purpose is to find specific answers to these 2 three questions: 1. Has the school any responsibility for developing the ideals of respect for and obedience to parents? 2m Is the school's responsibility for developing these ideals less than, equal to, or greater than that of the home? 3. Does the combined responsibility of the home and the school for developing the ideals of respect for and obedience to parents represent the total responsibil­ ity for developing these ideals? Specific answers to these three questions w ill constitute a solution of the problem of this thesis. Since it is for the family that correct home ideals w ill be developed, and through the family that they will be established, the first chapter of this thesis w ill be devoted to a discussion of the family-its social im­ portance, its past, present, and possible future status, and its relation to the school. : The Social Importance Of The Family.-In addition.to replenishing and perpetuating the race, the fami­ ly fosters and advances civilization. Its needs develop in­ dustry, perfect governments, and establish homes, schools, and churches. Through its heme contacts and influences indi­ viduals are fitted to enjoy social privileges and to assume social duties. "The rights of property and. person are learned and practiced in the family. Self restraint, obedience, and service are taught, and each member knows by experience his relations to others and recognizes duties to be fulfilled and rights to be enjoyed. In the family re­ ligion, morality, and general culture make 3 their earliest and most lasting impressions.*! The social ideals of love, justice, and freedom have their source in the family. The family is also the preserver and bearer of social tradition, knowledge, val­ ues, and ideals handed down from the past; and of social cus­ tom-sanctioned habits of behavior-because it furnishes the environment where children learn their language and with it the fundamental knowledge, beliefs, and standards of c iv ili­ z a tio n . Inasmuch as the clenonts of the larger social life occur in the family, it becomes a means of train­ ing in s o c ia l order and i s *a constant center from which issue influences, tending at once to stimulate and to perpetu­ ate social order. * 2 The family controls the birth and rearing of children and furnishes the stimulus tlirough the presence of other persons for the development of those ultimate habits, feelings, ideas, and standards which make for social solidarity. Past Status Of The 'Family.- * Histori­ cally, except for very early times, the fami­ ly was much more important as a social

  • Analyzing the Principles & Techniques of English Language Teaching Emphasized in the Crescent English Course
    PASAA Volume 57 January - June 2019 Idea Sharing: Analyzing the Principles & Techniques of English Language Teaching Emphasized in the Crescent English Course for Yemen Hani Qasem Mohammed Asaad College of Arts and Sciences Universiti Utara Malaysia Sintok, Kedah, Malaysia Email: [email protected] Abstract The Ministry of Education in Yemen has utilized several methods for teaching the English language including the grammar translation method, and the communicative language teaching method. This paper presents an analysis and description of the principles and techniques of English language teaching emphasized in the English language textbook “Crescent English Course for Yemen” used for teaching English for the third secondary grade in Yemen. This paper provides also a discussion about the effectiveness and feasibility of the methodology and techniques employed in the textbook. Although the textbook was designed and developed based on the communicative language teaching method to encourage the English language learners to engage in communication, to interact and participate in communicative classroom activities, many obstacles prevent them from achieving these goals. Among these obstacles are that teachers mostly follow the traditional grammar translation method in teaching the English language and students mainly focus on the final results, 192 | PASAA Vol. 57 January - June 2019 namely to pass the examinations which mostly consist of reading and writing tests. Keywords: Crescent English Course, communicative language teaching method, principles, English language teaching, Yemen Introduction Yemen is an Arabian country located on the southwest corner of the Arabian Peninsula. The system of education in Yemen has gone through various stages and has been profoundly affected by political and ideological factors.

MoeHerl Central High School; Omaha, Nebraska FLEX is the common acronym used to describe a presequenced Foreign Language EXploratory course ranging in length from six to nine weeks. Such a course is designed to motivate students to pursue foreign language study, to develop their interest in the world and its peoples, and to increase their sensitivity to cultural similarities and differences. There are a variety of FLEX programs in existence (Grittner, 1974). Some are cultural in nature, others emphasize linguistics, and still others are career-based (Strasheim, 1982, p. 60). The FLEX course is usually offered in sixth, seventh, or eighth grade before foreign language study is formally begun and gives the students an introduction to several foreign languages and cultures.

  • Teaching English As a Second Language in Yemen Lindsey
    Running Head: ESL in Yemen 1 Teaching English as a Second Language in Yemen Lindsey Houseman St. Lawrence University Running Head: ESL in Yemen 2 Abstract Situated in South Arabia, the official language of Yemen is Arabic. Although education in Yemen is a government priority there are still many challenges in the educational system. Yemeni students encounter many challenges in learning English so therefore ESL teachers would play a major role in helping out. The main difficulty is that the curriculum in Yemen is outdated and only focuses on grammar and how to use it the correct way. The curriculum does not include listening, reading, speaking, and writing. ESL teachers would need to take into account the lack of resources such as books and computers as well as take into consideration that nearly all people who live in Yemen are Muslim and the dress and topics should be more conservative. In order to be an ESL teacher in Yemen, one needs to obtain a university degree or teaching institution qualification. The average pay for a Yemeni teacher is $150 per month. Keywords: education, Yemen, primary education, considerations, teaching Teaching English as a Second Language in Yemen There is a high need for teaching English as a second language (ESL) all over the world. One country that could use help with teaching and learning English as well as learning styles is the country of Yemen. Situated in South Arabia, the people who live in Yemen speak Arabic. Yemen is an extremely poor country with very little of anything especially resources for schooling.

  • Fast-Tracking Girls' Education
    Fast-tracking Girls’ Education A Progress Report by the Education for All – Fast Track Initiative c Niamh Burke, UNESCO I welcome this report. No issue merits more urgent attention in education than the glaring divide that separates boys and girls in many of the world’s poorest countries. Much has been achieved over the past decade—and the author highlights the policies that have made a difference. But there is no room for complacency. Interacting with other markers for disadvantage like poverty, ethnicity, and the rural-urban divide, gender inequality in education has devastating consequences for individuals and societies. It restricts opportunity, undermines progress in health, and harms economic growth. If you want a catalyst for accelerated progress towards the Millennium Development Goals, girls’ education is the place to start. And this compelling report provides a road map for the journey towards gender equity.

  • The Potential of Blended Learning
    4 The Potential of Blended Learning Most of the blended-learning programs described in the last chapter use some form of rotation model—what Heather Staker, co-author of the Innosight taxonomy, calls “a sustaining innovation” rather than a disruptive one. At least some of the normal classroom structure remains the same. So what about all the other models described by Innosight in the first pages of chapter 1? Do they exist anywhere in robust forms? Blended Learning 63 THE POTENTIAL OF BLENDED LEARNING Some do. Two of Staker’s children attend Acton Academy in Austin, Texas, a private school that she’d classify as a “flex” model. Students use popular software such as DreamBox for math, Rosetta Stone for language, SpellingCity for spelling, and so forth. Students establish their own learn- ing goals for this flex time with help from their teachers. “The thing I like about blended learning, and that made me want it for my kids, is that it’s so much more efficient if implemented correctly,” Staker says. “It frees up a lot of extra space for the great things schools can be doing”—like small- group discussions and project-based learning. Indeed, Staker moved from Honolulu to Austin mostly to enroll her children in Acton, a school she learned about while writing the Innosight white paper The Rise of K–12 Blended Learning. “It was really hard to be reading about all of these pro- grams—I thought I had arrived upon a truth—and still be sending my own children to a traditional school,” she says.

Yet globally, 773 million adults and young people lack basic literacy skills 1, and more than 617 million children and adolescents are not achieving minimum proficiency levels in reading and mathematics². The current COVID-19 crisis has been a magnifier of existing literacy challenges, deeply affecting schooling and lifelong learning opportunities including for youth and adults with no or low literacy skills. During the initial phase of the pandemic, schools were closed down in more than 190 countries, disrupting the education of 62.3 per cent of the world’s student population of 1.09 billion in 123 countries.³ The COVID- 19 pandemic also affected around 63 million primary and secondary teachers in 165 countries. ⁴ Governments have been rapidly deploying distance learning solutions on an unprecedented scale, particularly in formal education for children and young people. A range of solutions, such as virtual lessons, dissemination of materials, and learning provision through TV, radio or in open air spaces, have been adopted. At the same time, the COVID-19 crisis hashighlighted in many places on the unpreparedness of infrastructure, education systems, programmes, and people, including policy-makers, educators and professionals, families, and learners themselves, for ensuring the continuity of teaching and learning in such circumstances.
